BSOD

Hello, the past two days I have gotten the bsod screen. It just happened randomly, when I wasn't using it, I just happen to look at see the blue screen. I posted on the virus forum first because my laptop was running pretty slow, but I didn't have any viruses. I am running Vista Home Premium, 2007. Thanks for your help.

Click Download from Piriform.com (the FileHippo link requires an extra click). Or if you want to use a portable version of Speccy (which doesn't require installation), click the builds page link and download the portable version.

You will now be asked where you want to save the file. The best place to put it is the Desktop, as it will be easy to find later.

After the file finishes downloading, you are ready to run Speccy. If you downloaded the installer, simply double-click on it and follow the prompts until installation is complete. If you downloaded the portable version, you will need to unzip it before use. Right-click the ZIP file and click Extract all. Click Next. Open up the extracted folder and double-click on Speccy.

====================

Once inside Speccy, it will look similar to this (with your computer's specifications, of course):

Now, at the top, click File > Publish Snapshot

You will see the following prompt:

Click Yes > then Copy to Clipboard
